Venus Cannot Have a Satellite Prograde or Retrograde
Abstract
On the basis of works of King and Innanen, the limiting direct and retrograde orbits around the planet Venus have been calculated. Synthesizing this concept with the concepts of Roche limit, synchronous orbit around the planet and the tidal drags acting within it, it is shown that Venus has not retained any satellite prograde or retrograde.
